just received the tripod today. On first impression, the tripod feels sturdy and the adjustments are solid. I previously purchased a lower priced unit but had to return it because it was too flimsy. After giving this one a quick trial run, it was justified. Hopefully it will prove itself just as good on the field. One quirk with this ball head type is that there's no handle to control the camera. You have to aim the camera itself and then lock down the ball head. I guess it's all a matter of getting used to it. But so far, I love it. I would say this is a good value for a semi- professional photographer.

am an amateur, but this is a good tripod. It stays where I put it. It lets me adjust exactly one thing at a time, holding everything else in place, so I can get it just right. It's solid enough to be useful in real life situations. It's obvious how every piece of it works, no confusion or frustration at all. I don't have to fight with it and I don't have to think. It even has a little bubble level at the top of the central pillar, so it's easy to see whether it's sitting flat. It's way better than the trash I was using before. Now if I mess up, I can't blame the tripod any more, I have to blame myself. Darn!

Been using this tripod for more than 6 months and I am very happy with it. It is not super lightweight but it is pretty acceptable. Setting it up is also easy when you get used to it. Of course, every body can now join the group photo rather than taking turns or asking a stranger.

Solid, well constructed tripod. I don’t think you can beat it for this price range. Works well, no complains whatsoever!

Good for heavy equipment, very sturdy, locking clips for legs are much better than pull and turn style.
